It's a double shot of Corn Syrup today as we take a look at the 1978 Kenner Stretch Armstrong Catalog, which features such memorable sights as Stretch Monster and Octopus
If that wasn't enough, we have the world wide web premiere of the original Stretch Monster Commercial from 1978 as well.
What a perfect way to start a long weekend, have a great one!

"long weekend" HAH!
I had Stretch Armstrong and Stretch Monster. I particularly liked Stretch Monster. He menaced my Mego Super Heroes a lot, since I had no villains. My Stretch Monster must have lasted quite awhile, as I remember taking him to either Kindergarten or First Grade show and tell.
The scaly texture on both the body and head were really well done. Lots of fine detail for a stretch toy!
Thanks for sharing Brain!

I had that Kenner Stretch Monster in Christmas, 1978.
I remember my mother and I went to the Toys R Us and I spotted him, I told my mother I wanted that one! So, she bought him for me for my Christmas present, thanx MOM!!!
My brother had a Stretch Armstrong, we played fought each others with them.
I loved it and played with him often. I accident poked him on the left of his chest with a pencil, the oozing came out. I put a bandage on him but still oozing came out........
